FlexMonkey is a testing framework for Flex applications that allows for automated testing of user interfaces. It captures tests like a functional tool but scripts them within FlexUnit, a unit testing framework for Flex. FlexMonkey is free, open source, and built on the Adobe Flex Automated Testing API. It handles Flex UI events without needing JavaScript or browser plugins by writing unit tests entirely in ActionScript.

FlexMonkey is a testing framework for Flex apps that provides for the capture, replay and verification of Flex UI functionality. FlexMonkey can record and playback Flex UI interactions, and generates ActionScript-based testing scripts that can easily be included within a continuous integration process. It uses the Flex Automation API and was created by extending Adobe's sample automation adapter, AutoQuick . See the Getting Started Guide for a quick overview of installing, recording, and running tests with FlexMonkey . FlexMonkey has been donated to the Flex community by Gorilla Logic , who developed FlexMonkey because of their belief that only monkeys would develop code without being able to automate their testing.
